One of Murry's

My sympathies to Murry's family and close friends. I have good memories of Murry, who as a customer was patient and a genuine nice guy. He was my best customer when selling new Freightliners and later in my new business of remarketing trucks. I miss him and his decent nice guy approach to working with me who at the time still had much to learn. I learned a good deal from him. Thank you Murry. Bless your soul and all of your loved ones. Scott.

Dear Erik, Tommy and Family, we were very sorry to read about your father's passing. Even though we have not seen you for years we still think of you very often. We are always here for you. With our deep sympathy, Dr. J. Odvarko, DC and Staff

I worked for Murry years ago and boy he treated me like a family member. Florilli was small company back then but man we laughed with him & Brad Jones & Timmy Daufeldt. Thanks Murry you were a great guy go with God sir.

My deepest sympathy to the Fitzer family.

I am very saddened for your family's loss. I remember a few years ago I was in Iowa for other business and reached out to Murry for dinner. He took time from his family and busy schedule to take me to a local Italian place and shared with me the story of how he started Florilli. It was a great conversation, but what struck me was how genuine and caring of a man he was. He will truly be missed.

To Julie and Family. I'm so sorry to hear of Murry's passing. I have never worked for anyone where they made you feel so welcome and part of a family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I would like to say I am very sorry to hear that Murry passed away. I was his first grade teacher. It was my first year of teaching. I loved that class and teaching in Durant. Just a story to share....one day I wasnt feeling well at all. Murry noticed and he marched up in front of the classroom and said, Miss Detlefsen is not feeling well today...so we have to be extra good. ....and then he sat down. He was adorable! I did attend a get together in Durant years later and I did ask about...

To Julie and Family: God Bless all of you. Heaven has another awesome angel! Murry was known to Jean from the day we got married. (Murry was in our wedding). So many beautiful memories, and your family made them amazing. Our deepest sympathy to all of you.

Extending family and friends my sincere sympathy and condolences at this time of your loss. Thank you, Murry, for having been our daughter's godfather.
